Maximum distance separable codes for \(b\)-symbol read channels




Abstract: Recently, Yaakobi et al. introduced codes for b-symbol read channels, where the read operation is performed as a consecutive sequence of b>2 symbols. In this paper, we establish a Singleton-type bound on b-symbol codes. Codes meeting the Singleton-type bound are called maximum distance separable (MDS) codes, and they are optimal in the sense they attain the maximal minimum b-distance. Based on projective geometry and constacyclic codes, we construct new families of linear MDS b-symbol codes over finite fields. And in some sense, we completely determine the existence of linear MDS b-symbol codes over finite fields for certain parameters.
